Marcus Thomason is the founder of Amara Books Publishing, a venture inspired by his deep love for family and storytelling. Driven by the desire to show his daughter Cadence that with a single idea and unwavering dedication, anything is possible, Marcus embarked on this journey of creativity and learning. His son Malakai, who is on the autistic spectrum, brings a unique and wonderful perspective to their lives. Both children share a passion for reading and are blessed with artistic talents, which further fuel their creativity.
Cadence, with her bright imagination, convinced Marcus to dedicate all their books to Malakai, her beloved brother, as a way to not only celebrate him but also provide enriching learning tools for him and other children who find joy in their stories. Together, they hope to inspire children everywhere to embrace their uniqueness and nurture their love for reading and creativity.
